The accessories for steam cooking (available for
purchase in a separate kit) offer the opportunity to
expand the field of steam cooking, allowing you, for
example, to experiment with specific ways of cooking
vegetables, fish, etc.
The accessories include:
- a dietary baking-pan consisting of two half-shells
made out of special glass with a recess for the
passage of a steam injector (Fig.29);
- a small grill to place inside the dietary baking pan
to keep the food raised;
- 2 injectors for steam cooking;
- a special steam cooking probe with two different
injectors to be used as shown in figures 29 and
30, by inserting them in the probe.

Accessories for steam cooking
Steam cooking in the dietary baking dish is
particularly suited for vegetables: it heightens the
flavours without watering them down and maintains
the nutrient properties of the foods intact.
Direct vapour cooking (Fig. 30) which uses the
perforated injector is ideal for chickens and turkeys.
The flesh is cooked on the inside thanks to the
vapour while on the outside it browns through
traditional cooking, and ends up being delicate, soft
and very tasty. The holes in the injector must not
be blocked; this is why the injector must always be
placed inside the empty part of the chicken and
turkey, as shown in Fig. 30.

Fit the end of the probe with the metal
element into the steam outlet. Insert the
two injectors into the other end of the
probe.
